is it worth the extra money and is it another pain in the butt adjustment to deal with? i'm the type of person who likes to have less adjustments to mess with but if its a huge difference in slicast vs. regular then i will go with it..


what is everyones opinions on them?

The adjustments are easy to do, and can be done in 5 minutes. It's nice being able adjust caster, because it really plays a big role in how your quad is going to handle. I haven't rode the regular Houser arms without Slicast, but I would assume they have zero caster.

Worth it? Yea, to me it was because I could set it where I wanted it. But, I may have been just as happy without having the adjustment. If you don't really understand, or know how different settings feel while riding, I would just go with the non-slicast.

the main reason i asked is because i'm about to pull the trigger and there is a guy with a brand new setup for 200 less but they arent sli cast.. i may just spend the extra and have the slicast

I have it and i love it, you can set it up many different ways,

if the track is tight and technical, you can give it more caster with moving the slicast

if the track is long and fast, you can give it no caster at all or negetive to make it less twitchy

i recomend it to anyone
